When I got my buck, I never did find my arrow so I went back & looked during daylight this past weekend & found where it apparently fell out of the exit hole about 40 yards into the 60 total that the buck traveled. We also drove around & checked on some other stands and I just thought I'd share some pictures! I cleaned up the arrow, it'll kill more deer! LOL!!!





The stand I was in when I got my buck



The stand was up to the left in this picture & the buck just ran right down & dropped in the grass down to the right about 60 yards from the stand. My bud Steve found the arrow right where he ran down te little hill in the middle.



The view from the back porch of our hunting camp & some more of the stands.

















A little magic juice!

I walked up on some Turkey that were out in the grass field where I parked my truck this morning when I went way back into a woods to bowhunt! Came close to getting a doe but she busted me when she got on the downwind side of my stand... Shot a couple short videos of the Turkey!

Once they saw me, they ran & flew across the road!

Here's a picture of where I killed my 2008 buck. The yellow spots are places I could go get in stands right in that area. The blue is my truck, where I parked by the barn & walked in from. The purple spot is where I saw the big buck & the red is the path the buck took from when I heard him behind me to where he laid down in the valley.



Just thought you might enjoy seeing the layout!

I didn't even leave the house till 2:30 pm and headed South about 2 & 1/2 hours knowing that sunset wasn't until 7:27 or something like that. I figured that I'd go hunt this evening & tomorrow. Deer started coming out around 6:15 & I shot a couple videos I'll have to load & see if you can see the big boy that came out about 500 yards away but he was a long ways off & walking/feeding away from me so I figured I wouldn't get a shot at him... Then 3 bucks started coming in through a hollow/thicket behind me and they were sparring down in the hollow. I could see one was an 8 & 2 were smaller 6 points. I normally go by an 8 points or better rule so it was decision time. Made up my mind! LOL!!! I thought I was going to spook him because my arrow came unknocked & clanked against my bow with the buck 5 yards from me, right after he passed my stand. But I was able to get it back together & figured out my newer arrows have snap lock knocks & I guess I hadn't snapped it all the way on! Anyways, walking up on a dead deer on the ground this evening was a dang nice feeling! Especially since I haven't killed anything but a lot of does & a couple spike bucks since 2003.




The Exit Hole! I always aim for where I want the arrow to exit! I was slightly higher but it was a solid kill shot & he only ran about 60 yards.

If you enjoy watching High School football highlight videos, I've been loading a ton of them on my youtube account! It's funny that a video I shot of our kicker making an extra point kick, where our cheerleaders come running down the sideline & one of them slips and falls, is getting the highest number of hits & a 5 star rating! LOL!!!

Anyways, Here's the link to my youtube account:

Our JV Boys pulled out some vindication for us today in a 28 to 7 win over the Division 1 Worthington Kilbourne Wolves and they didn't even give up a point until the last 3 minutes of the game when the 2nd string was in. Chris did awesome at Center for the whole game!



  

I loaded 14 videos from todays game on my youtube account including some great Defensive plays!

The more I get to know about this gal, the more I just really like her! It's sort of like it was destiny for us to feel really warm & fuzzy about being republicans again! At least I know I do!



















And, you know what, she just has an infectious smile & I honestly think the world could use some of that right now!



If you don't know about the stories that go along with all these pictures, I suggest you dig in and educate yourself because I have been really, really impressed by this woman!

   Call me a happy camper!!!

Man, our JV way outmatched Marietta's JV this morning... 62 to zip... I kinda felt bad & everybody got to play... the scorekeepers just kept the clock running in the 3rd Qtr & then shortened the 4th Qtr to only 8 minutes and we just ran the clock all we could in the 4th Qtr... But, I will say this, Marietta is a beautiful little town nestled in on the river there across from Parkersburg and we played at Marietta College's field right there by the river. The river looked absolutely beautiful. The water clarity was amazing to me. I've never seen the Ohio River looking so clear. I felt like I was in Canada looking at the river out there. My son had to play the whole JV game at O-line center because our only real back-up at center is a JV 1st string O-line guard. It was bright sun & hot with our guys out there in there black uniforms & helmets and Marietta's guys had black helmets to. One of Marietta's guys had to take a ride in a squad because he was suffering from heat exhaustion... Anyways, it was a good game for us & good to see all the guys shake hands in good sportsmanship at the end.


My son Chris is number 67.






 



Gotta love going to the State fair & getting to see a few cowgirls!

This was the 1st one I saw & she just smiled so pretty for me!



Then we went into the horse show & I got some more pictures and shot a few videos that I'll have to load later but here's some more pictures!











And Man, I wish I woulda had more time the last couple weeks to go see some of the shows they had!
